Abstract: |
A watching brief was carried out during the excavation of engineering test-pits and the removal of the foundations of a recently-demolished nursery school. Evidence of Roman, medieval and possibly prehistoric occupation had been recorded to the south of the site, whilst occupation had occurred within marshland to the north from later prehistoric times to the Roman period. During the watching brief, a layer containing 19th and 20th century pottery and glass was recorded beneath topsoil, and it was noted that a 6m wide strip of land along the northern edge of the site was void of archaeological deposits due to modern intrusions. The area to the west of the former school building appeared not to have been disturbed, whilst the area of foundations in the central third of the site was found to contain three small islands where the ground was also undisturbed. An evaluation of the site was carried out in 1999. [AIP] |
